Architectural studies have explored smart and sustainable buildings, with smart concepts and technological advancements in communications and information to meet future building needs. The emergence of various self-operating software has also imposed new design systems. Studies have focused on smart technologies in educational spaces, represented by information and communication technologies that keep pace with scientific and technical developments in education. These technologies provide an internal environment suitable for students to perform educational activities, enabling spaces to convey information more easily and flexibly, allowing students to interact with their environment. Additionally, sustainability advocates a return to nature and reducing reliance on technology to save energy in buildings. However, this approach has been neglected due to the excessive use of technological means for control without studying some of their negative environmental impacts, leading to a failure in meeting the comfort requirements of architectural spaces.
Therefore, this research aims to enhance the sustainability of educational buildings by studying the design requirements of smart buildings and the mechanism of applying these technologies to educational buildings. This involves integrating programmable smart technologies into the building's heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems to provide an internal environment with dynamic heating, cooling, ventilation, and lighting. The goal is to achieve an optimal balance between student comfort and energy efficiency, supporting the sustainability of educational buildings and achieving economic and environmental efficiency.
